Anthony Richardson can just make plays normal quarterbacks can’t. How in the world wasn’t Dan Mullen playing him?

#Florida looks like they finally have Cam Newton in pads (Anthony Richardson) but he's also dressed as Tim Tebow (wearing #15). SEC will be that much more fun if it is for real. #UUvsUF
